RIETH ROM numerous nications from residents it is commu pioneer obvious is very that the name Rieth appropriate for Pilot Rock Junction. It is also a short name and so will appeal to those who have to write it. What is more important to Pen dleton it is a short distance from Pendleton to Rieth. The terminal station is so close as to be a virtual suburb of this city. Yet the road to the sta tion is so bad that it is diffi cult to travel. We need a good road to the junction and Pen dleton should in various other ways take steps to get in bet ter touch with the new commu Iflnity. There has not been suf- r- ; , . . .. .

TOWN OF RIETH RECALLS INCIDENT OF THE PAST T. It. miSUM TELLS 0V CELEBRA TION AT COMPLETION OF " NEW HOME. Pendleton, Ore., April 28. Editor East Oregonian: With the revival of the name Rieth selected by the O-W. R. A N. Com pany for the new depot at the Junc tion (by the way, a most appropriate selection), I am reminded of an in cident, evidently overlooked or for gotten by Uncle John Bentley, In con. nection with his history of the build ing of the Rieth house In 1872. For a number trf years prior to the building of the hoBse : referred to by Mr. Bentley, the Rieths lived at the mouth of the creek in a little log cab In, but had extensive stock interests at that point. Bentley completed the house referred to by him in the fall or early winter of 1872, and the Rieths, in celebration of the event of the completion of the house under took to give a general neighborhood dance and supper, everybody of course, being expected to attend. In vitations were unknown. The only music on such occasions was a fiddle and on this occasion the veteran Happy Canyon fiddler Jack Morton, was engaged to come and bring his fiddle. Jack left home early in the afternoon on horseback in order to be in proper tune by the time the guests arrived. He having gone on horseback, entrusted his partner, Alex Birchfleld. who contem plated coming later In a buggy, to bring his violin. Birchfleld had a special reason for going in a buggy. For some months Prior he had been most attentive to a lady, who is yet living and whose name I will leave it to her to dis close if she sees fit to do so. On the night in question Birchfleld left the home of the youn(f lady with the violin under the seat, and the lady by his side, the road leading to the mouth of Birch Creek, then across McKify creek above the mouth ami ver the hill down to the point to Birch Creek. Somewhere between McKay ('reek and Birch Creek the momentous ques tion was propounded by Birchfleld and his suit was rejected. Birchfleld became angry, refused to go further, returned the young lady to her home anil forgot all about the fiddle and the .music for the dance. A lai kc and hilarious crowd, among whom I was one. spent the night at the house, hail a most enjoyable sup. per. but no music and no dance.
